Identify the correct statement :

  • A.Slander is Intangible
  • B.Slander is Tangible
  • C.Slander is Liable to Libel
  • D.Slander is a harmless

Answer: A

The correct statement is Slander is Intangible.

Defamation takes two forms. Slander is defamation in a transient form, usually spoken words or gestures, while libel is defamation in a permanent, tangible form such as print, writing, pictures or broadcast.

So slander is not tangible. 'Liable to libel' confuses the two forms, and slander is not harmless: it is actionable when it damages reputation.
